Description

"wsdl"

string

The location of the WSDL file describing the SOAP service you wish to
authenticate against. The WSDL file takes priority over a specified
"location" and "uri".

"location"

string

The URI where the service is located, when not making use of a WSDL
file.

"uri"

string

The namespace of the web service, when not making use of a WSDL file.

"method"

string

The SOAP method you wish to call.

"usernamefield"

string

"username"

The name of the field where the username is stored.

"passwordfield"

string

"password"

The name of the field where the password is stored.

"matchpasswords"

boolean

TRUE

If TRUE then the container will look for the password field in the
returned result from the soap call and try to match that value with
the one supplied from the end user.

If FALSE then it is assumed that the soap call will return an error
if the user does not authenticate properly. If no error is returned
than the user is assumed to valid and allowed to proceed.

"_features"

array

A named array of extra parameters that are to be passed to the soap
call in addition to the username and password fields. These are
passed to the soap call as named parameters.
